THANK YOU GREEN BAY!

I want to send out a personal congratulations to the Green Bay Packers.  Its hard to find a bad thing to say about about Green Bay and their fans.  Aaron Rodgers was outstanding and deserves all the recognition he is recieving today.  The biggest reason I am thankful to the Packers is for the win over Pittsburgh.  Call me a hater call me whatever you want but there is no town I can not stand more than the city of Pittsburgh.

My day started off with going to the grocery store in Columbus, OH and the entire store was littered with Pittsburgh jersey's, flags, balloons, cupcakes and cookies.  I may have to make a decision on rather to boycott Giant Eagles stores all together.  This is Columbus in the middle of the Buckeye state where we root for the Bengals or the Browns.  I dont give a crap about their Steelers or their annoying towels.  Let alone in my personal grocery store. Ridiculous!

Green and Yellow, Green and Yellow

Though I am pissed off at the grocery store, I have even more anger towards Pittsburgh, so screw Pittsburgh.  Ive been to your town several times and I would never donate a dollar to that town even if my car broke down next to Mellon Arena.  I dont care that your town was built on steel and factories no one cares.  Nor does anyone care about the three rivers that are forced to run through your town.  Screw you fat Lavance Fields whose three point basket knocked out my Xavier Musketeers in the NCAA tourney three years ago in Boston. Screw you Penguin fans who think they own Columbus, come into our town and try to overtake our restaurants and bars!

Green and Yellow, Green and Yellow

Finally screw you to the Pittsburgh Steelers and their annoying fans.  Did anyone ever tell you that you wave petty yellow flags around? No one is intimadated by a freakin towel.  Nor are we afraid of your urine and black uniforms.  Guess what Pittsburgh, professional sports did not start in Pittsburgh get over yourselves trust me I know it will be hard to do.  But its the Truth!  I went to bed smiling last night knowing there was nothing but silence coming from the town I can not stand!

Green and Yellow, Green and Yellow! Thank you Packers I am now officially a Cheese Head!

Jay Cutler

Jay Cutler dominated the headlines after Championship Sunday in the NFL.  Should we be surpised that Cutler who is known for his arrogance and me first mentality would some how steal the spotlight? Personally I am not one of those, never forget that Cutler forced his way out of Denver because he did not see eye to eye with new Head Coach Josh McDaniels.  I guess the suprising part for me is over 100 current and former NFL players went to Twitter to question the toughness of Jay Cutler.

I am not one to question someone's toughness especially in a sport such as the NFL.  These are modern day gladiators that often times play with torn muscles, broken body parts or severe bruising.  I have seen players limping all over the field, I have seen Phillip Rivers play and win at Indianapolis with a torn ACL, I have seen players play with clubs on their hand to protect a break. Jay Cutler has been on some awful teams at Vanderbilt where I am sure he took a pounding or two at the hands of Florida or LSU or Alabama.  Cutler has only missed one start and that was due to a concussion earlier in the season.  So I am not going to question Jay Cutler and how tough he is or is not.  But, I am going to question his desire to re-enter a game of the magnitude of the NFC Title Game. 

There was a disconnect from Cutler every time the camers showed him throughout the game.  Yes there were two times he was talking to back up Todd Collins.  But once Collins left the game Cutler was almost non existent on the sideline.  Cutler even spent a short time on the stationary bike which we heard after the game never happens if there is a possibility of a serious knee injury.  Jay Cutler has often been disliked by many of his teammates and at times been characterized as stand offish.  But why in a game of this magnitude would he not want to go out and least try for those guys who work their tails off for Cutler all season.  The only person that knows the answer is Cutler himself. 

Cutler has a history of being the guy at the front of the line when things are going very well.  But also the guy that does not want to take the blame or hides in the background when times get tough.  So which Jay Cutler shows up next year when the trek back to the NFL Title starts in late July?  For the time being Bear captains Brian Urlacher and Olin Kruetz seem to have their quarterbacks back.  But in the back of their mind do they know for sure that Cutler will have theirs?  As of Sunday in the biggest game for the Bears in three years Jay Cutler spent the last three quarters on the sidelines.  Only time will tell on the Jay Cutler knee injury debate!
